This specification presents the minimum fabrication and qualityrequirements for the torch brazing of materials such as steels,stainless steels, copper, copper alloys, and heat- andcorrosion-resistant alloys as well as other materials that can beadequately torch brazed. Note that the torch brazing of aluminumalloys is addressed in AWS C3.7M/C3.7, Specification forAluminum Brazing.
The purpose of this specification is to standardize torchbrazing process requirements and control brazed joint quality forall applications requiring brazed joints of assured quality. Thisdocument establishes minimum requirements for processes andproducts with a minimum of explanatory information so that sourcesof ambiguity are minimized. It assigns responsibility for theultimate quality of the brazed product to a single organization andpermits that organization to modify requirements if appropriate tothe application. It requires proper documentation of any suchmodifications.
Procedures for the protection of the safety and health of thoseperforming torch brazing and related operations are of greatimportance. However, safety and health concerns are beyond thescope of this standard and therefore are not fully addressedherein. Safety and health information is available from othersources, including, but not limited to, ANSI Z49.1, Safety inWelding, Cutting, and Allied Processes.
This standard makes use of both the International System ofUnits (SI) and U.S. Customary Units. The latter are shown inbrackets [ ], or in appropriate columns in tables and figures. Themeasurements may not be exact equivalents; therefore each systemmust be used independently.
